Ty Segall: "Queen Lullabye; King Tuff: "She's On Fire"

Because what's a year in music without some insane number of releases from Ty Segall?

This time he's sharing a side with King Tuff for a split live 12" titled Live At Pickathon, which features performances from the 2013 Pickathon Music Festival. This is apparently the second installment in an ongoing series, the first of which featured Diarrhea Planet and Those Darlins. You can sample two tracks from each artist on the Soundcloud link below.
